· 341 MINUTES of THE MEETING of THE CITY COUNCIL November 29, 1982 CALL TO ORDER Mayor Robert Butler called the Special Meeting of the City Council to order at 7:30 p.m. ROLL CALL Deputy City Clerk Doris George recorded the roll as follows: Councilmembers Brandes, Mercer, Mohr, Wood, and Mayor Butler were present. Planning Commissioners Doherty, Getty, and Lindsey were present. Planning Commissioners Jamieson and Wilson were absent. Mr. Walker, City Manager, Mr. Swift, Assistant City Attorney, Mr. War- nick, Director of Public Works and Utilities, Mr. Harris, Director of Planning and Community Development, Mr. Lew, Assistant Planner, Mr. Eastman, Chief of Police, and Mr. Hill Fire Chief, were present. , FURTHER REVIEW OF MOHR/MARTIN AREA Mayor Butler stated this meeting is a further informal review of the Mohr/ Martin area, continued from the study session held on October 25, 1982 regarding this matter. Mr. Harris reviewed his original report, and presented an addendum report en- titled "Development Potential and Constraints in the Mohr-Martin Area", setting forth alternatives for new street alignment. He stated that emergency vehicle access should be considered whenever further development plans for the area are submitted for review; even though a fire station is located in close proximity to the study area it cannot be guaranteed that those emergency vehicles will be drawn from that station for all emergency situations, and that accordingly, the street system should be designed for acceptable levels of service. Staff feels that if the northern col- lector street is a through street to Santa Rita Road then response time would be adequate for the Mohr/Martin area and Trenery Drive could be a cul-de-sac. Mr. Harris reviewed the recommendations presented in the original report, and stated that staff still feels these are generally acceptable with further consideration of recommendation 3 relative to Trenery Drive as a major access point from Santa Rita Road to Martin Avenue. Mr. Harris stated the addendum report discusses the park location and density on the Kamp and Wagerman properties and also phased develop- ment. Mayor Butler stated that testimony would be accepted now from the audience. Mr. Bill Black, who resides at the corner of Mohr and Martin Avenues, stated that most of the walnut trees in this immediate area are diseased with "black line" and also suffer because of the gravel stratus at the surface of the land, and that for Council to consider minimum one acre lots in order to preserve the trees is a joke. He added he did not feel it is fair to be penalized because of the presence of trees which are diseased. Mr. Martin Inderbitzen, representing Bob Molinaro, reiterated his position pre- sented at the last meeting, stating that because they have not in fact prepared any development plan they do not want to have their planning affected by a predetermined street system. He stated there will have to be some internal streeting in that area but such extensions could over-burden some properties. He stated his client prefers Alternace C, which gives the most flexibility. He stated he felt density should allow for feathering from west to east.
